1) Pres Biden will knock out that Covid19 virus in no time. Had he been President in 2020, not one American would have lost their live to Covid19 (so he said)

2) Hunter Biden will be appointed as Ambassador to China

3) Pres Biden will resign before the end of 2021

Don't hold much faith in #1,  but the next 2 look like good bets.

And talking about predictions ,Gunter, I'm anxious to see just how many PROMISES the Biden administration will deliver on in the next 4 years.

 Here's another PREDICTION tho: 

 Many failures to deliver their campaign promises will be alluded to having been caused by the former administration.

   John

It's happening!!!

Lockdowns are being lifted in Michigan, California, NY and Chicago 

We are being released from our home-prisons.

Now, since Trump is gone, we don't need to destroy the economy anymore.

Remember when Biden insisted that he would not ban fracking in October, to win PA, after saying that he would previously?


Well, we know now, which time he was telling the truth(some already knew this in October).

The reality:

    Biden’s Fossil-Fuel Freeze        

Climate activists are now running federal oil and gas permitting.

No, Biden Won’t Ban Fracking

Trump’s obsession with this idea smacks of desperation.

metmike: Does this matter?

Only if you care about:

1. tens of thousands of jobs short term(more than that long term) which will go bye bye-DEN.

2. Energy security in the US and energy independence which will go bye bye-DEN.

3. Energy prices which will skyrocket and sock it to the poor.

Biden accused of 'war on energy' with ambitious orders to combat climate change

                 

            President sued over moratorium on oil-and-gas leasing on federal lands


https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2021/jan/27/biden-hit-same-day-lawsuit-over-ban-oil-and-gas-le/


President Biden capped Wednesday his one-two punch on climate, thrusting global warming to the forefront of his administration and suspending new oil-and-gas leases on federal land, despite warnings that his jabs at carbon emissions would knock out jobs and flatten the economy.

                                                                                                                                                        

A week after reentering the Paris climate accord and canceling the Keystone XL pipeline, the Democrat signed executive orders to put the nation on an “irreversible path” to a renewable-energy economy, citing the risks of wildfires, floods, droughts and storms that he said were made worse by climate change.

                                                                                                                                                        

“We can’t wait any longer,” Mr. Biden said at the White House. “We see it with our own eyes. We feel it. We know it in our bones. It is an existential threat. There is a climate crisis. We know what to do; we’ve just got to do it.”

                                                                                                                

The president’s executive actions also called on government agencies to protect scientists from “political interference”; eliminate fossil fuel subsidies; create a “Civilian Climate Corps Initiative,” and conserve 30% of U.S. lands and oceans by 2030 in an effort to fight the “climate crisis.”

The Western Energy Alliance wasted no time swinging back with a federal lawsuit, arguing that Mr. Biden’s leasing moratorium exceeded his authority and violated a host of federal laws, including the National Environmental Policy Act.                                                                                       “The law is clear. Presidents don’t have authority to ban leasing on public lands. All Americans own the oil and natural gas beneath public lands, and Congress has directed them to be responsibly developed on their behalf,” said Kathleen Sgamma, the Alliance president.

                                           While the fossil-fuel industry will be hard hit by his actions, Mr. Biden insisted that he won’t eliminate existing hydraulic fracturing, or fracking.

                                                                                   “Let me be clear, I know this always comes up — we’re not going to ban fracking,” the president said, even though climate change “will be the center of our national security and foreign policy.”

                                                  Republicans declared the administration had begun its “war on energy” even with the coronavirus pandemic already ravaging the economy, predicting the president’s policies would drive up energy costs, send American jobs overseas, and force the nation to rely once again on foreign imports after achieving energy independence for the first time since 1957 during the Trump administration.

                                                                                                                                                                                                      

“I’m all for transitioning to cleaner forms of energy, but we have to deal with the reality of, for example, the fact that there are 280 million cars with internal combustion engines on our roads,” said Sen. John Cornyn, Texas Republican. “How are families going to get to work, take their kids to school, or live their life if all of a sudden the very natural resource that they depend on for their cars is no longer available?”
